Hello all.
Took the plunge and bought a used 100hp on Saturday and despite my initial concerns regarding ride quality, I must say that I’m absolutely smitten with it.
Driving into work today, I overtook a posh mummy-wagon and just started laughing to myself, I then grinned for the rest of the journey – what a great little car!!
I sold my Audi A2 TDI last week, and although the Audi build quality, economy and practicality are impressive it’s not half as much fun to drive, and whether driving smoothly or bringing the racer boy out in me, the gearbox and engine seems really well engineered and refined – the car also feels well bolted together.
One problem though – despite having just 10500 miles on the clock, the support on the right side of the drivers seat has collapsed, exposing the internal frame and causing the fabric to wear significantly. I have just returned from Wilsons in Epsom where it is being booked in for inspection on Wednesday and they will hopefully agree to replace under warranty - no reason why they shouldn’t, surely a car seat can be reasonably expected to last the life of the vehicle?!?? Anyone else experienced this problem?
I’m sure I’ll have more to report in future but initially just wanted to say hello.
